Description

Finish your retro/vintage, burlesque or pin-up look with this mini bowler, reminiscent of hat styles from the 1940s! Mini hats, also called toy hats or doll hats, were popular after World War II, ostensibly due to material shortages. This hat is a surefire showstopper at any formal or club event, or plan ahead for your next holiday or new year's party.

This mini bowler hat is made of black felt, measuring 6 inches long by 5.5 inches wide, including the brim. It is adorned with a spray of black "eyelash" feathers, surrounding a cluster of glittered silver resin tendrils. The hat has a band made of silver mesh ribbon. The short veil is made of silver-glittered diamond netting. It is finished with a large silver-glittered resin flower.

The hat is sewn to a hair comb, in a style called a fascinator, for easy attachment to any hairstyle. (We can add an elastic headband if you request it; tell us your hair color so we can match the band to it.) All adornments are hand-sewn and securely attached.

These hats are listed for Joei Reed Custom Millinery. Joei Reed trained in theatrical costume design at Duke University and offers a variety of colors, adornments and styles. Hats are made for retro, vintage, pin-up, burlesque, rockabilly, goth and gothic lolita styles. These hat styles are also great for weddings, races, church, formal functions, proms or just going out to dinner when you want to make a statement!
